Reply to comment by supernice in What's the Difference between Anarcho-Primitivism and Post-Civ ? by autonomous_hippopotamus
^^ Some good analysis there, no need to apologize
yeah i think we're totally in agreement, so i think the weakness of primitivism (and maybe some post-civ thought) is the idea civilization will just collapse on it's own. It's like how certain Marxists used to think Capitalism would just collapse under the weight of it's internal contradictions, so you don't need to actively work towards overthrowing capital and building what will replace it. It is basically like christian fundamentalists who don't care about social injustice because the rapture gonna come and fix everything anyway.
